Song Xier and the old Confucian scholar who was captured with her were pierced by a long knife on the boat board, and the body was tied to a large stone and sank into the Minjiang River.

Although Chen Xi did not take it personally, he supervised the whole process in order to ensure safety.

After the carriage and horse gang got things done, Chen Xi ordered Ma Jiu to clean the blood on the boat board, while he and Yun Liu entered the cabin to rest.

After coming out for a long time, Chen Xi caught a cold and kept coughing.

Yun Liu had a pulse for Chen Xi, and personally boiled hot water to let Chen Xi hold the hot tea to warm her body.

Xier sat next to her, supported her head and said, "When I went down the mountain, I seemed to hear that the government officials had arrived. How did they find them?"

Chen Xi coughed twice and said disrespectfully: "It was the official I asked someone to report to... If it weren't for the officials, it would be not so easy for you to ease down the mountain."

Yun Liu said: "I heard from Yu Niang that the officials and soldiers of the Fuzhou Left Guards had notified the officials and soldiers, and they might have gone together... I wonder if they would follow the traces and follow them?"

Chen Xi glanced at Xier: "That depends on whether you have any flaws... If the performance is good, even if the officers and soldiers captured Song Xier's people, they would only think that the Japanese who robbed Song Xier and would not doubt others."

"We will go to the city in batches tomorrow morning. If the inspection at the city gate is tight, it will be fine to enter the city in a few days. Anyway, the boats and convoys of our chamber of commerce are constantly in contact, so it is still easy to bring a few people."

Then Chen Xi stopped talking and closed her eyes to rest. Yun Liu did not disturb Chen Xi, and sat quietly beside her. Only Xier couldn't rest and went out to check it out from time to time.

One hour later, the ship docked to the shore, but it was not Qingshui Ferry Pier, because the boats moored at night at the pier could easily lead to government investigation.

Still coming from a marsh of reeds, passing through a wilderness filled with weeds, facing a hill. There is a stream covered with woods on the other side of the hill.

Chenxi came to the edge of the river ridge on the left side of the stream, instructed people to dig a large pit under a cliff, then wrapped the Japanese clothes and the samurai swords they carried before and put them in the pit. Then they filled them with sand and gravel, then carried some large stones from the river, and finally put some large and small stones scattered, as if they naturally rushed to it when there was a flood.

After the inspection, I felt that there was no problem. Chen Xi asked everyone to change their clothes and let everyone disperse themselves.

According to the previous plan, the brothers teamed up in three or five to rest at the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce outside Fuzhou City, and then they broke it into pieces.

Chen Xi took a carriage back to Fuzhou City. Ma Jiu and a brother from the carriage gang drove the carriage, and Chen Xi, Yunliu and Xier were carried in the carriage.

The road was basically along the river. When we were about to arrive at Fuzhou City, we did not find an inn for a temporary rest. At this time, the sky was already dark, and Chen Xi decided not to stay outside the city and continue to move forward.

When the carriage arrived at the city gate, the city gate had been opened normally.

Ma Jiu got off the carriage and asked the brothers of the carriage to drive the carriage to send Chen Xi and the other two into the city. He himself had to hide outside the city for a while before returning to the city when the limelight came over.

When he entered the city, he did not encounter any strict inspections, so Chen Xi took out the road. He learned that Chen Xi was a candidate who was taking the exam, and the city gate guards did not make any trouble.

These days, candidates come to Fuzhou City every day, which is not uncommon. But the officers and soldiers were surprised that Chen Xi took the provincial examination at a young age, and the school led by the team came over to get close to him and make a fight with Chen Xi.

From this point of view, Chen Xi could basically judge that although the government arrested Song Xier's group of subordinates yesterday and found a large number of missing people, it can be said that they were captured.

However, the government does not intend to make things public. After all, so many people under their rule were robbed and sold to Japanese people, which is a big scandal. Once things get big, the censors and censors will definitely keep a close eye on them. At that time, the black hats on many people may be unsecured.

Furthermore, the leaders of local forces in Fuzhou captured this time have always been extremely public resentment. In the past, they were deterred by the pressure from the Dusi Yamen. All levels did not dare to enforce the law impartially. Now the evidence of the crime is conclusive, and there must be a coordination process between the three officials and the three officials to see how to relieve the responsibility and maximize the credit.

At this time, the government and the county level of the prefecture and county governments paid more attention to how to resettle the three religions and ninth-class forces in Fuzhou after Song Xier's disappearance. As for the pursuit of Japanese pirates, it is not the management authority of the local government. The Fuzhou Left Guard has to see how the Dusi Yamen will eventually decide. After all, Song Xier is a hawk raised by Fang Guan. If Fang Guan's people are exposed, it will definitely cause an uproar, and there will be a process of appeasement and compromise within.

When Chen Xi returned to the inn, Manager Yin was very surprised. He didn't know why Chen Xi didn't come back last night. Chen Xi just used the excuse to go to the city to attend the literary meeting too late and stayed in his friend's room. Manager Yin did not doubt it. Chen Xi went upstairs and returned to his room, pierced his head on the bed and fell asleep... In addition to physical fatigue, he also had a psychological sleepiness.

Although Song Xier and the old Confucian scholar were not killed by Chen Xi, they were transformed from living people into corpses under his nose.

Although Chen Xi was a human being indifferent to life and death, his personal experience of the bloody scene still made him unable to let go of it for a while.

Chen Xi slept very deeply. The fog that had not been dreaming of for a long time appeared in his dream again. But this time, it was not the lotus seed before, but a beautiful lotus. He felt that his mood suddenly became extremely peaceful, as if he was under the tranquility of Buddha light.

Without darkness and fall, without destruction and replacement, Chenxi felt an unprecedented tranquility surrounded by the colorful auspicious light emitted by the lotus.

At some point, I felt a cool wind blowing on my body and my whole body was extremely comfortable. Chen Xi suddenly woke up. When he opened his eyes, he saw Yin Wen standing beside the bed, waving the banana fan to fan him, looking very hard.

Seeing Chen Xi wake up, the little girl smiled and her hands were still slapping her, but her forehead was already covered with tiny beads of sweat.

Chen Xi sat up, turned to look at the sky outside the window. It was already noon, the sun set, and I had been asleep almost one day. Chen Xi looked at Yin Wen and asked, "When did you come?"

Yin Wen is usually taciturn, but when Chen Xi asks her, she always answers seriously: "Sometimes, when you come in... the young master is sleeping, sweating profusely, so I will fan you the air and cool you down."

"Thank you." Chenxi Road.

"laugh……"

Yin Wen was a little embarrassed and lowered his head embarrassedly.

Chen Xi tidied up his clothes, sat down at the desk, picked up the book and started to review the book, but two scenes clearly appeared in his mind. One was the wailing sound of Song Xier before his death yesterday, and the lotus that emitted Buddha's light in his sleep.

"Young Master, are you hot? I want to slap myself for a while." Yin Wen brought Zhang Xiao's bench over and asked with a little childishness as soon as he sat down.

Chen Xi shook his head: "I'm not hot, just fan it yourself."

Yin Wen nodded happily and fanned herself with a banana fan. The hair on her forehead was blown up by the wind, and she waved her. She looked very playful, just like a girl's mood.

Chen Xi looked at Yin Wentian’s innocent eyes and felt a sense of peace. Thinking of the blood on his hands yesterday, he had no face to face this innocent and kindness.

But then I thought about it, isn’t everything I did to protect the people around me who can continue to be so innocent and not be defiled by the world?

Thinking of this, Chen Xi's heart quickly returned to a calm state.

As long as the people around you are safe, you can live a peaceful life without being bullied. No matter how much you do, it is worth it! He can bear the bad and evil things alone, and leave the purest and truly beautiful things to the person he loves and thinks about.

This is also his responsibility to live in this world!

...

...

At sunset, it was time to leave again, and Yin Wen began to become depressed.

With her age, she didn't understand the relationship between men and women, but she just regarded Chen Xi as a playmate who knew everything, and was full of nostalgia. After all, the little girl was kept in the boudoir, and except for her parents and relatives, she could not contact people outside. Her family was busy with livelihoods, or she had to go to school and study, so she rarely played with her.

The girl's state of mind is the purest. Like it is like it. She will not hide it deliberately. When she followed her grandmother and turned around in three steps and walked out of the back door of the inn, Chen Xi stood in front of the window and looked at her back for a long time.

Before nightfall, Yu Niang came to visit. She wanted to know Chen Xi’s next plan.

"...As soon as Song Xier died, there was no leader in Huaiyang Tower. Even Song Xier's capable assistant Shang Weiqi was arrested by the government. It seems that the building will collapse! The sister of the Zi family is following the channels between the government and the Dusi Yamen, wanting to take over Song Xier's position. Now it seems that she has a good chance."

When Yu Niang said these words, she also felt that Zi Qian was not good at it.

Chen Xi knew very well that Zi Qian and Yu Niang didn't trust each other very much. They both stared at each other tightly, and could not escape each other's sight without any move. The reason why he reminded Yu Niang not to get close to Zi Qian was to make Zi Qian feel suspicious.

As expected, Zi Qian found that Yu Niang was avoiding her intentionally or unintentionally, and mistakenly thought that Yu Niang wanted to step on two boats and might have contact with Song Xier.

So, Zi Qian was willing to lure each other with beauty and fetched information from Shang Weiqi. He found that Song Xier was preparing to trade with Japanese pirates. He became more and more suspicious whether Yu Niang was involved, so he planned to use the troops of the Zuowei of Fuzhou to get a stolen person and get it.

Chen Xi shook her head and said, "She won't have a chance."

"Oh?" Yu Niang obviously didn't understand.

Why did Chen Xi repeatedly remind her not to leak the matter? She turned around and thought for a moment and understood. With Chen Xi's instructions, she tried not to see Zi Qian, worried that she would reveal her slightest and let Chen Xi down. As a result, Zi Qian smelled some kind of crisis from Yu Niang's actions and then launched a counter-attack against Song Xier.

Yu Niang still believes that this is just Chen Xi wants to add chips to the end. She never expected that Zi Qian's jumping up and down would only backfire. All she did behind her will only make Fang Guan think that Song Xier's disappearance was completely designed by Zi Qian.

Chen Xidao: "Yu Niang has a wide range of connections and should give gifts to Commander Fang at this time."

In a word, it is actually waking up Yu Niang.

Yu Niang was shocked and immediately thought about the whole story carefully. Finally, she realized that what Chen Xi set up was a chain of plans. On the one hand, she tried every means to get rid of Song Xier, and at the same time, she asked Zi Qian to take the initiative to take the blame and point the source of everything to Zi Qian.

Zi Qian offended the Dusi Yamen and would definitely not be able to get it. If Yu Niang could take the initiative to stick the top of the wall at this time, she might not have replaced Song Xier's position.

Yu Niang thought about it and smiled softly: "I am no longer a young man, and I don't have much energy to get involved in the world. I just want to spend a few days of peace. It is better to leave those glory that dominates the world for others."

What Chen Xi proposed was just an idea, and Yu Niang had the right to choose to accept or not.

To gain Fang Guan’s trust, you must not only give a lot of money, but also commit yourself to Fang Guan. As a woman who just came out of the fun, it is understandable that Yu Niang doesn’t want to repeat the same mistake.

Yu Niang's heart is still a bit noble and cold, not as unscrupulous as Zi Qian.

Or maybe Yu Niang looked down on Fang Guan, recognized her identity and experience, and disdained to join the commander-in-chief of the soon-to-be.

Chen Xidao: "Since that's the case, it depends on how the local area divides the big cake of Huaiyang Tower, and how much can each company get. At least our Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce just wants to do some small business as it pleases."

Yu Niang smiled and gave Chen Xi a blank look, as if she was saying, "Would you be willing to get a small share of the pie after you have tried your best to design this?"

Yu Niang said, "I have asked Xier, the girl outside the city to take refuge for a while, and I will leave Fuzhou for some time. If Mr. Chen has something to do and want to find me, just tell Yun Liu that she will live in an inn at the end of the street."

Chen Xi nodded. Since Yu Niang chose to leave the matter and did not intend to compete for Fuzhou's territory and interests, she must choose to avoid disaster. Otherwise, Zi Qian, who was gradually savoring, would definitely retaliate against her.

Yu Niang has a strong sense of self-protection. Seeing that she was in a crack in this matter, she simply came over to say hello to Chen Xi and left Fuzhou first.

She thought it was very simple. Since Chen Xi could design to get rid of Song Xier, this is not the scheming and demeanor that ordinary people can have. Going back, the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce will definitely make great achievements in Fuzhou. At that time, when she comes back, as long as she depends on the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce, she can rest assured.
